Tray 1

I'm supposed to changing trays on Friday but I was feeling that my aligner was becoming very loose and I could lift it off with my tongue. I also found a crack on my top aligner!! But anyway decided to change early because I'm very impatient. When people say that invisalign weeks go so fast, they're lying. I mean it could just be that this was my first tray, but the week went so slow, it felt like ages since i went to see my orthodontists and it was only less than 2 weeks ago!

Here are some pictures of what my teeth look like after tray one. There is so no difference at all, I think this tray was just a training tray to get my teeth used to it or maybe a "primer" tray to get the teeth a bit looser ready for real movement.




So I've put the trays in and it seems that my bottom tray doesn't fit me!! My two back molars on my right side don't seem to be fitting into the trays and so whenever i bite down it just bounces back up, kinda feels spongy. Please, if you've ever had this problem tell me how to fix it because I'm scared xD

I'm getting my attachments (all 21) on 11th Oct! Will update then!

Picturesss

Okay so these pictures are of my teeth before the treatment



So as you can see that tooth on my upper jaw is hiding away and i want it to come out of hybernation! Also a few misaligned teeth on my lower jaw!


And this is me with my aligners in


I'm telling you they don't look as noticeable as this!! I mean this is a defined picture of a close up so please don't let this put you off!! Get invisalign!

GOT MY ALIGNERS!

Got a call yesterday telling me my aligners are in and i should make an appointment for today! Went there and the orthodontists told me to slip them on (told me i was a pro) and take them off. I was so amazed as to how invisible they are, i can't even see them myself, I'M NOT EVEN JOKING!! I will be getting my attachments in a month (two on my front teeth) so i dunno how invisible they'll be then but for now i'm really happy. He gave me my trays and only one container thing to put my aligners in - reading and watching previous blogs, i had thought i'd be getting two but i only got the red one. He then booked me for next month when i'll be getting my attachments!

When i first put them on they didn't feel tight at all and i thought i'd try my second trays on to see if there was any difference. To my surprise my second trays did not fit my back teeth so I'm thinking that my first trays are actually moving my teeth even though they don't feel tight. After two hours of wearing them, I put my aligners in some water and ate my dinner. When i finished, brushed my teeth and aligners, i slipped them back in and they felt really tight (really like the feeling btw).

That's it for now, will update soon. Also I will be putting pictures up when my phone is charged ;)
